In this episode of the Designated Player's Podcast, the guys make their picks for who will win their first round matchup in the MLS Cup Playoffs, as well as make their picks for the two eastern conference play-in games. Before any of that, we make sure to quickly recap the USMNT games from the last week.

THE GOLDEN GENERATION FOR THE USMNT?!?! Hopefully not because we want to have even more talent in the future, however this is still quite possibly the most talented group of young US players we've ever seen to date. We briefly talk about the two games from last week which included a 8 goal thriller victory over Panama. But before we get too onboard the hype train (here's looking at you Adam), we have to talk about the level of competition they faced. Make sure to listen to all we had to say regarding the new, exciting USMNT!

Predictions are back! Yes we know you've been missing our always spot on amazing, accurate predictions! Well wait no longer because we are here to bring you our picks for every first round matchup in the MLS playoffs. We begin by picking the two play-in game winners and then work our way down the eastern and western brackets. Some of these were not easy picks, which means you know we've got some exciting first round matchups to look forward to! Definitely take a listen to our picks and feel free to tell us how we're wrong, or maybe even right?

Finally, it wouldn't be a prediction episode without making a score prediction as well, so make sure to stay until the end if you want to hear exactly how we think each game will play out. Feel free to reach out and let us know your score predictions as well!
